Glaive Guisarme Games
Games that hook you. And stab you!
Hey there! Welcome to this, the digital warehouse of Glaive Guisarme Games. Here, I make tabletop RPGs and story games that rarely feature polearms of any sort, but embody what might be considered the spirit of the glaive-guisarme: somewhat ludicrous but effective at the thing they were intended to do.
I'm Lara Paige Turner; I'm a queer, trans indie designer from the Pacific Northwest. If you want to learn more about me or other games I've worked on, visit GlaiveGuisarme.com, or follow me, @GlaiveGuisarme, on Twitter.

Important note: My games are not for everyone. In particular, they aren't for fascists, they aren't for racists or queerphobes or bigots of any other stripe, they aren't for cops. If you think these labels apply to you, I do not want your business.
Some of my recent games and old favorites are there on the sidebar to the right, and everything is below, roughly organized into categories.
